Possibly 4 Para, 4th Battalion, The Parachute Regiment?

Good luck with your research

Have you exhausted all avenues within the extended family for photos of him or documents from his time in the military ? When did he die and which part of the country was he living in at the time ?
Pete Rogers, son of LSgt Joe Rogers MM & nephew of TSM Ken McAllister. Both No2 Commando.
God and the Soldier, all men adore, In time of danger and not before.
When the danger is passed and all things righted, God is forgotten, and the Soldier slighted.
